Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed AD polled 40,021 votes, 2.6× the 15,268-vote margin.
40,021 ÷ 15,268 = 2.6
The top two polled 64.9% of votes; the other 9 candidates 35.1% between them.
(56,454 + 41,186) ÷ 1,50,402 = 64.9% · 52,759 ÷ 1,50,402 = 35.1%
Turnout of 54.6% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
54.6 − 55.8 = −1.2
